Since the game is so new, there is loads of information to add and document on the wiki. It will take some time for everything to be posted, so there are many pages missing at this point. Thanks for the help with posting information. I'll get to formatting this page appropriately sometime in the near future. — ABCface^◥ 06:40, 7 December 2012 (GMT)

What is exactly different about the different versions except value? — Unsigned comment by 82.73.72.148 (talk) at 21:04 on 8 February 2013

There is no significant difference. The first, second, and third versions that you can get are identical except for value and the ENCH records they use for the enchantment. However, all three ENCH records appear to be identical. So the only significant difference is still the value. — ABCface^◥ 04:34, 9 February 2013 (GMT)

I keep losing the staff out of my inventory for no reason — Unsigned comment by 2.223.220.71 (talk) at 19:15 on 4 April 2021 (UTC)

44 Uses?

Copied from Article:

"Miraak's staff has 44 uses, which is more than any other direct damage causing staff."

What is it the writer wants to tell us? -- SarthesArai ^Talk 12:23, 14 December 2013 (GMT)

It's saying that the staff has more charges then any other damage dealing staff, so it doesn't have to be recharged as much, saving you soul gems. I've removed the note before, but it was readded. --AN|L (talk) 15:55, 14 December 2013 (GMT)

Ah, I thought it had something to do with the "Use Info" from CK. Maybe we should clarify that it means charges. -- SarthesArai ^Talk 16:09, 14 December 2013 (GMT)

Bug

Moved confirmed bug from main page:

Placing the staff on a weapon rack may cause it to disappear. (Level 1-44 version, rack in Severin Manor.)

Needs to be re-added somewhere if not here. —Legoless (talk) 15:40, 15 December 2013 (GMT)

I have the Level 45-59 version. It doesn't disappear, but doesn't play well with all of the weapon racks, either. If I try to place the staff on one of the Severin Manor racks, that can hold two weapons and a shield, it appears floating in mid air somewhere behind me. I can pick it up and it appears in my inventory just fine, but the rack remains occupied. I mean, it seems empty, but I can't pick anything from it nor place anything on it. Everything works ok with single weapon racks.

2 staves?

I pickpocketed the staff off of Miraak when he stole a dragon's soul and when I fought him I got the right one. The staff I pickpocketed from him had the same effect, but the tentacles were replaced by lighning. Is that normal? 90.191.198.134 17:50, 24 February 2014 (GMT)

That is probably DLC2MiraakStaff. There are a whole slew of different "Miraaks" in the game data. Interesting that the version stealing souls isn't essential - does that mean you could just have killed him instead too? --Alfwyn (talk) 18:54, 24 February 2014 (GMT)

Items, Apparel Enchantments to reduce staff having to be recharged?

When I have destruction staves operating when I have equipped enough enchanted apparel to lower my destruction spell costs to zero (0), they never have to be recharged, so what school of magic should apparel be enchanted to reduce this staff's having to be recharged in a similar way?

I had tried destruction, restoration, conjuration, but none of these seemed to work for this staff like they did for the corresponding type staves specific to those schools of magic? 198.91.176.251 19:22, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

Mora's Power is a lesser power and has no associated magic school. I don't know if being a lesser power makes a difference but having no school attached does. The poison effect from the tentacles is treated separately and is associated to the destruction school. Silence is Golden^{Break the Silence} 19:53, 1 July 2017 (UTC)
